  • All Superinterfaces:
    java.lang.Iterable<XMPNode>, XMPNode, XMPStruct
    public interface XMPQualifiers
extends XMPStruct
    This represents qualifiers in the XMP tree. Qualifiers are in effect properties of properties which can provide additional information about the property value.

    • Method Detail

      • getHost

        XMPNode getHost()
        Gets the qualified node of these qualifiers
        Returns:
        the host node

      • getXMPPath

        XMPPath getXMPPath()
        Return the path of this XMPNode
        Returns:
        the path of this XMPNode

      • get

        XMPNode get​(XMPPath path)
        Return the node of the given path, relative to this node.
        Parameters:
        path - the path to the desired node relative to this node
        Returns:
        the node at the path position or null if it could not be found

      • remove

        XMPNode remove​(XMPPath path)
        throws XMPException
        Remove a node at a given path, relative to this node
        Parameters:
        path - the path to the node that shall be deleted
        Returns:
        the removed node or null, if nothing is removed
        Throws:
